CLOSE AND DESTROY

Windsor Kraft Strategies is a shadow empire in the murky world of private security and corporatized warfare. Staffed by former military operators and intelligence specialists, they are able to discreetly deliver surgical force around the globe as a silent partner in American foreign policy.

 

In the failing nation-state of Daristan, NATO’s long-running counterinsurgency campaign begins to falter when the country’s fundamentalist spiritual leader returns from exile with an army of devout fighters – and covert support from foreign agents looking to upset the balance of world power. A token force of international peacekeepers, propped up by the Windsor Kraft "Special Mission Troops" and their local guerilla units, try to hold the line as coalition governments scramble to shore up exit plans amid the shockwave of violence.

Windsor Kraft’s team must begin evacuating their clients while attempting to stall a newly energized insurgent offensive. But with the clock ticking, the country collapsing, and a hidden enemy hunting them behind the scenes, they must choose between mission accomplishment and self-preservation, or risk being abandoned behind enemy lines by the government that hired them.
